Over Bluestrom

Growth icon

Sustainable

We're committed to sustainability. Decades of research and development in electric aquatic propulsion and the use of water lubrication have resulted in groundbreaking power solutions in a zero-emission era.

Water drops icon

Powerful

Just like with electric vehicles, our electric-powered thrusters provide instant torque, faster acceleration, a smaller turning radius, and improved manoeuvrability compared to fuel-powered counterparts. The quiet operation is a bonus.

Bolt icon

Reliable

Our thoroughly tested e-motors are built to last. With ceramic bearings, no mechanical power transmission, no seals, and intelligent use of modular carbon fibre-reinforced polymer parts, they're virtually maintenance-free with extended life cycles.

Producten

Bluestrom Horizon H POD Drive

Horizon H

POD Drives

This electric POD drive is an ideal modern propulsion system, offering a cleaner environmental footprint and space-saving benefits. Depending on the desired power, the Horizon H is available in both single and double-motor versions. Additionally, it can be equipped with a 360-degree rotation add-on for optimal manoeuvrability.

  • Power range: 5-180 kW
  • Water lubricated bearings, no seals
  • Virtually maintenance-free & no wear
  • Higher efficiency by utilizing adaptive composite blades
  • Excellent weight/power ratio
  • Vibration free and quiet running
Bluestrom Horizon R Rim Drive

Horizon R

RIM Drives

The inline electric RIM drive is seamlessly integrated into the housing, operating without a central shaft. The Horizon R is the perfect choice as the primary propulsion system for relatively small and slower boats, such as canal cruisers within city limits. Additionally, it can function as a bow thruster (tunnel or retractable) for taller boats and larger yachts, enhancing bow manoeuvrability.

  • Power range: 15 - 190 kW
  • Water lubricated bearings, no seals
  • Virtually maintenance-free & no wear
  • Higher efficiency due to optimized flow, less resistance
  • Excellent weight/power ratio
  • High bollard pull and quiet
Bluestrom Horizon Z Propellor blades

Horizon Z

Propeller blades

In case of damage to a blade, there's no need to replace the entire propeller. The composite blades for the Horizon H and Horizon R can be easily replaced individually, requiring no expensive expert assistance and can be done using standard tools.

  • Efficient repair planning is possible because low inertia prevents high vibrations caused by potential blade damage
  • Easy to install
  • Standard propeller blades available from stock
